pos: Malala Yousafzai Malala Yousafzai ( Malālah Yūsafzay : -LSB- ; ملاله یوسفزۍ -LSB- məˈlaːlə jusəf ˈzəj -RSB- born 12 July 1997 ) is a Pakistani activist for female education and the youngest-ever Nobel Prize laureate . She is known for human rights advocacy , especially education of women in her native Swat Valley in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa , northwest Pakistan , where the local Taliban had at times banned girls from attending school . Her advocacy has since grown into an international movement .   Yousafzai was born in Mingora , Khyber Pakhtunkhwa , Pakistan . Her family came to run a chain of schools in the region . Considering Jinnah and Benazir Bhutto as her role-models , she was particularly inspired by her father 's thoughts and humanitarian work . In early 2009 , when she was 11 -- 12 , she wrote a blog under a pseudonym for the BBC Urdu detailing her life during the Taliban occupation of Swat . The following summer , journalist Adam B. Ellick made a New York Times documentary about her life as the Pakistani military intervened in the region . She rose in prominence , giving interviews in print and on television , and she was nominated for the International Children 's Peace Prize by activist Desmond Tutu .   On the afternoon of 9 October 2012 , Yousafzai was injured after a Taliban gunman attempted to murder her . Yousafzai remained unconscious , in critical condition at the Rawalpindi Institute of Cardiology , but later her condition improved enough for her to be sent to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham , UK . The murder attempt sparked a national and international outpouring of support for Yousafzai . Deutsche Welle wrote in January 2013 that she may have become `` the most famous teenager in the world . '' Weeks after her murder attempt , a group of fifty leading Muslim clerics in Pakistan issued a fatwā against those who tried to kill her .   Since recovering , Yousafzai became a prominent education activist . Based out of Birmingham , she founded the Malala Fund , a non-profit , and in 2013 co-authored I am Malala , an international bestseller . In 2015 , Yousafzai was a subject of the Oscar-shortlisted documentary He Named Me Malala . The 2013 , 2014 and 2015 issues of Time magazine featured her as one of the most Influential people globally . In 2012 , she was the recipient of Pakistan 's first National Youth Peace Prize and the 2013 Sakharov Prize . In 2014 , she was announced as the co-recipient of the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize , along with Kailash Satyarthi , for her struggle against the suppression of children and young people and for the right of all children to education . Aged 17 at the time , she became the youngest-ever Nobel Prize laureate . Since March 2013 , she has been a pupil at the all-girls ' Edgbaston High School in Birmingham . In 2017 , she was awarded honorary Canadian citizenship and became the youngest person to address the House of Commons of Canada .

neg: Izala Society Izala Society , formally Jama'at Izalat al Bid ' a Wa Iqamat as Sunna ( Society of Removal of Innovation and Re-establishment of the Sunna ) , also called JIBWIS , is an Islamic movement originally established in Northern Nigeria to fight what it sees as the bid ' a , ( innovation ) , practiced by the Sufi brotherhoods . It is one of the largest Islamic societies in Nigeria , Chad , Niger , and Cameroon .   Izala was established 1978 in Jos , Nigeria by Sheikh Ismaila Idris ( 1937-2000 ) , `` in reaction to the Sufi brotherhoods '' , specifically the Qadiri and Tijan Sufi orders .  According to Ramzi Amara , Today the Izala is one of the largest Islamic societies not only in Northern Nigeria , but also in the South and even in the neighbouring countries ( Chad , Niger , and Cameroon ) . It is very active in Da ` wa ( propagation of the faith ) and especially in education . The Izala has many institutions all over the country and is influential at the local , state , and even federal levels .   The group has been called a salafist organization `` that embraces a legalist and scripture centered understanding of Islam '' .  David Commins has described it as the fruit of missionary work by the Saudi Arabian funded and led World Muslim League .  `` Essential texts '' for members of the Izala Society are `` Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab 's treatise of God 's unity and commentaries by his grandsons '' . Ibn Abd al-Wahhab was the founder of the Wahhabi mission , the official Islamic interpretation of Saudi Arabia . He saw Sufism as rife with idolatry ( shirk ) . The Izala Society has been labeled as infidels by Islamist group Boko Haram , due to their willingness to work with the Nigerian government .

neg: Mohammad al-Massari Dr. Mohammad Al-Massari is an exiled Saudi physicist and political dissident who gained asylum in the United Kingdom in 1994 . He runs the Committee for the Defense of Legitimate Rights and is an adviser to the Islamic Human Rights Commission . In the mid-2000s , he was briefly employed as a lecturer by the physics department of King 's College London .   Mohammed Al-Masari fought deportation from the United Kingdom in 1996 .   During the trial of individuals charged with roles in the bombing of the American embassy in Nairobi evidence was made public that an Exact-M 22 satellite phone purchased by another Saudi dissident Saad Al Faqih , and given to Mohammed Al Masari in 1996 , to aid in his deportation fight , received a call from one of the Nairobi suicide bombers eight days before the attack .  The phone was also reported to have been used to make calls to arrange an interview of Usama bin Laden by ABC News World News Tonight .   There are reports that attribute to Mohammed Al-Masari the assertion that Iraq 's leader Saddam Hussein contacted Afghan Arabs in late 2001 , following the American invasion , inviting them to find refuge in Iraq .  In its report of this assertion the Middle East Online noted that other experts disputed the claim .   He has been known to declare British troops in Iraq to be legitimate targets for militants , and has hosted videos of bomb attacks and beheadings on his website . He runs a radio station with similar messages , including songs calling for a jihad against coalition forces . Although some government officials have expressed concern over the content of his broadcasts , Dr. al-Massari insists that his radio station is not broadcast in Britain and therefore is not under the jurisdiction of the British government .   In March 2003 he made an extended appearance on the BBC series of the television discussion programme After Dark alongside , among others , Albie Sachs , Jim Swire and David Shayler .   Al-Massari and his Tajdeed web site get a few mentions in a 2006 analysis of the use of graphics in Islamist terrorist propaganda . The Tajdeed website was taken down in July 2007 , possibly in response to publicity generated by a MEMRI report about that site and others like it .   He is the former head of CDLR and is a former member of Hizb ut-Tahrir and currently is the head of the Party for Islamic renewal .

neg: Abdur Rehman Peshawri Abdur Rehman Peshawari was a Muslim from British India ( modern day Pakistan ) who , motivated by Pan-Islamist sentiment , left his education at the prestigious Aligarh Muslim University and went to the Ottoman Empire , initially as team member of the People 's Mission to the Ottoman Empire in 1912-13 .

neg: Afzal Khan Khattak Afzal Khan Khattak was a Pashtun chief of the Khattak tribe , Pashtoon poet , and author of Tarikh-e-morassa was the eldest son of Ashraf Khan `` Hejri '' ( 1044-1105/1635 to 1693-94 ) . In 1083/1672 -73 Ashraf succeeded his father Khushal Khan in the chieftaincy of the Khattak tribe , but in 1092/1681 he was betrayed into the hands of the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb by his brother Bahram and died in captivity .   Afzal Khan was arrested by the Mughals in 1098/1686 -87 and carried to Kabul . He returned two years after the death of Khoshal Khan ( 1100/1689 ) to assume the chieftainship of the Khattak tribe , which he held for sixty-one years . Based on a reading of a tarikh in the divan of Afzal 's son Kazem Khan Sayda , Sidiqullah Rishtin and A. Habibi ( Paxtane su ` ara , Kabul , 1941 -- 42 , I , pp. 229 -- 30 ) gave the date of Afzal 's death as 1183/1769 -70 , but this divan had already been put into final form in 1181 . Thus the date of his death is uncertain .   H. G. Raverty 's statement ( Selections from the Poetry of the Afghans , London , 1867 , p. 269 ) that Afzal , upon the assumption of the chieftainship , put his uncle ( and rival ) Abdul Qader to death does not bear examination ; the latter translated the Golestan of Sheikh Saadi in 1124/1712 . Another uncle of Afzal 's ; Gawhar Khan 's writing in 1120/1708 , gives testimony to Afzal 's good chieftainship and to his consuming literary interests , which were aimed at   Collecting his illustrious grandfather 's works and having them copied to save them from oblivion , and  Inspiring Gawhar Khan and other members of the family to use their talents in translating into Pashto some of the great works in Persian and Arabic .  Afzal himself made a number of translations chiefly historical when he had ruled for twenty-five years and was fifty three years old ; the Tarikh of A`tam Kufi , the Siar of Mullah Mo'in , and a tafsir of the Koran . He began a translation of the Iar-e danes ; Abu ` l-Fazl 's simplified Persian version of the Anwar-e Sohayly by Hosayn Wa`ez Kashefi , which was completed in 1128/1716 under the name ` Flmkana da Danes .   Afzal Khan Khattak began writing his main work , the Tarikh-e morassa , about 1120/1708 . It is an uneven history of the Afghans in Pashto , compiled from various sources . The first and last parts are translations from the Persian work Makhzan-e Afghani ( or Tarikh-e-Khan Jahani ) written by Niamatullah in 1020/1611 . The second part ( about half the volume ) contains an account of the Yousafzai 's and kindred tribes , based mainly upon the Tazkirat-ul Abrar by Akhund Darweza , the Tabaqat-e-Akbari , the Jahangir-nama , and other Persian sources , and an extensive account of the history of the Khattaks , particularly of the author 's grandfather .   It includes long extracts from the bayaz ( notebook ) of Khushal Khan and relates events up to the year 1136/1723 -24 . This part of the book was used by H. G. Raverty as source material for his Notes on Afghanistan ( London , 1888 ) . Afzal Khan Khattak is buried in Ziarat Kaka Saheb near Nowshera .

neg: Stranded Pakistanis in Bangladesh Stranded Pakistanis in Bangladesh ( -LSB- , উদ্বাস্তু পাকিস্তানী ) are Urdu-speaking Muslim migrants with homelands in present-day India and Pakistan who settled in East Pakistan ( now Bangladesh ) following the partition of India in 1947 .   This identification can encompass several groups of people . First among them is `` Bihari Muslims '' . Although most of this population belonged to State of Bihar in India there are many from other Indian states such as U.P. ( United Provinces or later Uttar Pradesh ) . There are still others who had settled in what is now known as Bangladesh in the late 19th century . The second term of reference for this group coined by themselves after creation of Bangladesh is `` Stranded Pakistanis '' . In Urdu media in Pakistan and elsewhere this was translated as `` Mehsooreen '' or the `` Besieged '' . Another common term is `` Non-Bengalis '' , which includes not only the Urdu-speaking but also Punjabis , Pathans and Baloch living in Bangladesh . Henceforth any of the above terms may be used to identify this group depending on the context and history .   Biharis were stateless until 2008 when a judgement by the Dhaka High Court gave them right of citizenship . The judgement does not cover refugees who were adults at the time of Bangladesh Liberation War .   In March 2015 , Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Pakistan said that more than 170,000 Biharis had been repatriated to Pakistan and the remaining ` stranded Pakistanis ' are not its responsibility but rather the responsibility of Bangladesh .

On June 18 , 1888 two British officers and four Gurkha soldiers were killed in an altercation between British reconnaissance patrols and antagonistic tribes . As a response , the Hazara Field Force was assembled and began its march on October 4 , 1888 , after an ultimatum had not been satisfied by the tribes by October 2 , 1888 . The first phase of the campaign ended with the Hassanzai and Akazai tribes requesting an armistice on October 19 , 1888 . The second phase of the campaign targeted the tribes that lived north of Black Mountain such as the Allaiwals . The campaign ended when the Allaiwal village of Pokal was occupied and destroyed by the British on November 2 and 3 , 1888 .   British and Indian Army forces who took part in the expedition received the India General Service Medal with the clasp Hazara 1888 .

neg: Mohammad Yunus Khalis Mawlawi Mohammad Yunus Khalis ( alternate spellings Yunis and Younas ) ( محمد يونس خالص c. 1919 − July 19 , 2006 ) was a mujahideen commander in Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan . His party was called Hezb-i-Islami ( `` Party of Islam '' ) , the same as Gulbuddin Hekmatyar 's party . The two are commonly differentiated as Hezb-e Islami Khalis and Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin .   He was a staunch conservative fundamentalist and virulently anti-Shia , though not -- unlike Gulbadin Hekmatyar , his original commander with whom he severed his ties for being too extreme -- a hardliner , and wrote the 1991 treatise `` An Appeal to Support the Holy War in the Sudan '' . After the fall of the communist government in 1992 , his forces controlled Nangarhar Province in eastern Afghanistan .   Maulvi Mohammad Yunus Khalis was born in 1919 in Khogyani District , Nangarhar Province in Afghanistan and became a powerful figure in his country 's turbulent modern history . Educated in Islamic law and theology , Khalis exercised influence through his conservative vision of Islamic society . Sometimes referred to as the don of Nangarhar , he was also a shrewd politician who wielded considerable power behind the scenes during one of the most turbulent and violent periods in his country 's history .   After the overthrow of Mohammad Zahir Shah by Mohammad Daoud in 1973 , Khalis fled to Pakistan and joined Hekmatyar 's Islamic Party ( Hezb-e Islami ) . After the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan , Khalis broke with Hekmatyar and established his own party ( Hezb-e Islami Khalis ) .   Khalis reportedly entered Afghanistan many times to join his forces in waging war against the Soviets and their local proxies . Many prominent mujahideen commanders including Abdul Haq , Amin Wardak Faisal Babakarkhail and Jalaluddin Haqqani were affiliated with Hezb-e-Islami Khalis .   After the fall of the Communist regime in 1992 , Khalis participated in the Islamic Interim Government . He was a member of the Leadership Council ( Shura-ye Qiyaadi ) , but held no other official post . Instead of moving to Kabul , he chose to remain in Nangarhar . His party controlled major parts of this politically and strategically important province . The Taliban brought Nangarhar under their control in September 1996 and Khalis was supportive of the Taliban movement and had a close relationship with Taliban commanders .   Khalis resided in Pakistan in the late 1990s . After the fall of the Taliban , his supporters regained their stronghold in Jalalabad where Khalis exerted considerable influence , although he held no official post . Two of his close associates , Haji Abdul Qadir and Haji Din Mohammad served as governors of Nangarhar Province after the fall of the Communist regime .   According to a statement from his son , Anwar al-Haq Mojahed , Khalis died on July 19 , 2006 .

neg: Rats of Shah Dola Rats of Shah Dola or Shah Daulah ( Urdu : شاہ دولہ کے چوہے ) or ` rat-children ' , ` chuas ' or ` mice ' are children or adults suffering from microcephaly , exploited as beggars at the shrine of Shah Dola situated in Gujrat City , Punjab and elsewhere in Pakistan . They have sloping foreheads , narrow faces which have a rodent quality and mental disabilities .   One explanation to the origin of Rats of Shah Dola is a so called abuse myth . Shah Dola was a saint belonging from Seherwardi School of thought from Aurangzeb 's Era , came in Gujrat ( Punjab , Pakistan ) . According to the abuse myth Shah Dola claimed that he had the power of making incapable women fertile , but at the price that those women had to donate their first born baby to shrine to be a `` Rat of Shah Dola '' . Otherwise the rest of her children would become disabled . According to the story he deformed children 's heads with iron caps to get them to help him by begging , and the practise is continued even today . . On the other hand , the local people claim that shahdola was a friend of Allah ( Wali ) , and , he never took children from people , rather his spiritual powers gave children to many infertile couples coming to him . Almost all other myths and availavle literature of the area confirm this claim .  The gathering of disabled at the shrine of Shah Daulah was probably begun in a charitable spirit . It weakened over time to become a form of exploitation . This activity was later misinterpreted with allegations of ` cranial deformation ' . The abuse story has been examined and rebutted by British , Indian and Pakistani investigators , district officers , physicians and anthropologists . The natural occurrence of microcephaly , and innocent local customs of manipulating infants ' heads for beauty , give explanation . However , some exploitation of people with microcephaly did happen at the shrine and the government took control of it in 1969 . Begging continues within the religious tradition of the itinerant ` faqir ' , and some microcephalic adults earn their living independently in this role . Nowadays there are thousands of disabled children at the shrine .   A possible reason for large occurrence of microcephaly in Pakistan is the fact that 60 percent of Pakistani marriages are made between first cousins .

neg: Punjab, Pakistan Punjab ( Urdu , Punjabi : , panj-āb , `` five waters '' : ) , is Pakistan 's second largest province by area after Balochistan , and its most populous province with an estimated population of 101,391,000 as of 2015 .

Following a successful rebellion , Sikh-led armies claimed Lahore in 1759 . The administration of the Sikh Empire was based out of Lahore , until its defeat by the British . Punjab was central to the independence movements of both India and Pakistan , with Lahore being site of both the Declaration of Indian Independence , and the resolution calling for the establishment of Pakistan . The province was formed when the Punjab province of British India was divided along religious boundaries in 1947 by the Radcliffe Line after Partition .   Punjab is Pakistan 's most industrialised province with the industrial sector making up 24 % of the province 's gross domestic product . Punjab is known in Pakistan for its relative prosperity , and has the lowest rate of poverty amongst all Pakistani provinces .

At the end of the 20th century , two of their albums , Their Greatest Hits ( 1971 -- 1975 ) and Hotel California , were ranked among the 20 best-selling albums in the United States according to the Recording Industry Association of America . Hotel California is ranked 37th in Rolling Stones list of `` The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time '' and the band was ranked number 75 on the magazine 's 2004 list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time .   The Eagles are one of the world 's best-selling bands of all time , having sold more than 150 million records -- 100 million in the U.S. alone -- including 42 million copies of Their Greatest Hits ( 1971 -- 1975 ) and 32 million copies of Hotel California . Their Greatest Hits ( 1971 -- 1975 ) was the best selling album of the 20th century in the U.S. . They are the fifth-highest-selling music act and the highest-selling American band in U.S. history .   The band released their debut album , Eagles , in 1972 , which spawned three top 40 singles : `` Take It Easy , '' `` Witchy Woman , '' and `` Peaceful Easy Feeling . '' Their next album , Desperado ( 1973 ) , was less successful than the first , only reaching number 41 on the charts ; neither of its singles reached the top 40 . However , the album does contain what would go on to be two of the band 's most popular tracks : `` Desperado '' and `` Tequila Sunrise . '' The band released On the Border in 1974 , adding guitarist Don Felder as the fifth member midway through the recording of the album . The album generated two top 40 singles : `` Already Gone '' and their first number one , `` Best of My Love . ''   Their 1975 album One of These Nights included three top 10 singles : `` One of These Nights , '' `` Lyin ' Eyes , '' and `` Take It to the Limit , '' the first hitting the top of the charts . Guitarist and vocalist , Joe Walsh , also joined the band in 1975 . The Eagles continued that success and hit their commercial peak in late 1976 with the release of Hotel California , which would go on to sell more than 16 million copies in the U.S. alone and more than 32 million copies worldwide . The album yielded two number-one singles , `` New Kid in Town '' and `` Hotel California . '' They released their last studio album for nearly 28 years in 1979 with The Long Run , which spawned three top 10 singles : `` Heartache Tonight , '' `` The Long Run , '' and `` I Ca n't Tell You Why , '' the lead single being another chart-topping hit .   The Eagles disbanded in July 1980 but reunited in 1994 for the album Hell Freezes Over , a mix of live and new studio tracks . They toured consistently and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998 . In 2007 , the Eagles released Long Road Out of Eden , their first full studio album in 28 years and their sixth number one album . The next year they launched the Long Road Out of Eden Tour in support of the album . In 2013 , they began the extended History of the Eagles Tour in conjunction with the band 's documentary release , History of the Eagles .   Following the death of Frey in January 2016 , Henley stated in several interviews that he did n't think the band would perform again . However , in March 2017 it was announced that the Eagles would be headlining two concerts in July 2017 .

neg: See You Tonight See You Tonight is the third studio album by American country music singer Scotty McCreery . It was released on October 15 , 2013 , by Mercury Nashville . The album is produced by Frank Rogers , making it McCreery 's first studio album not to be produced by Mark Bright .

neg: One Live Night One Live Night is a 1995 semi-acoustic live album by heavy metal band Dokken . The reunited Dokken recorded the album during their 1995 tour . The album went virtually unheard at the time of its release . Released at the time when grunge and alternative rock were dominating mainstream rock music , MTV had no interest in featuring glam metal acts ; so Dokken decided to do their own `` unplugged '' album . This intimate performance included versions of `` Tooth and Nail '' , `` Into the Fire '' and `` Alone Again '' , as well as covers of the Beatles ' `` Nowhere Man '' and Emerson , Lake & Palmer 's `` From the Beginning '' .   One Live Night was also released on VHS and later DVD .

neg: Cate Brothers The Cate Brothers are the singer-songwriter-musician duo of Earl and Ernest ( Ernie ) Cate ( born December 26 , 1942 ) , twin brothers from Fayetteville , Arkansas , who in the mid-1960s became performers of country soul music at clubs and dances in Arkansas and elsewhere in the mid-South of the United States . Both brothers are singers , with Earl playing guitar and Ernie playing piano . They were recording artists during the mid - to late 1970s and again from the mid-1990s through the first decade of the 2000s .   In their hometown of Fayetteville in the 1950s , where rock-and-roll pioneer Ronnie Hawkins had also grown up during the 1940s , Hawkins owned and operated the Rockwood Club . Other early rock musicians came to play there , including Jerry Lee Lewis , Carl Perkins , Roy Orbison and Conway Twitty .   During the late 1950s the Cate brothers associated with Hawkins and his band , the Hawks , including drummer Levon Helm . In 1958 Hawkins and his band left Arkansas and settled in Canada . Later the Hawks went on to form the Band .   In 1975 , Helm introduced the Cate brothers to a record company representative in Los Angeles . The brothers soon after received a recording contract with Asylum Records , and so began their recording career .   Their self-titled debut album released in 1975 was produced by guitarist Steve Cropper . He also performed on the record along with Levon Helm , Donald `` Duck '' Dunn , and Poco bass guitarist Timothy B. Schmit ( who later joined the Eagles ) . The album contained the duo 's only Top 40 single , `` Union Man '' , which spent 20 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 , peaking at # 24 in May 1976 .   Two more albums followed , In One Eye and out the Other in 1976 and Cate Bros. . Band ( with drummer Terry Cagle and bassist Ron Eoff ) in 1977 .   In 1979 they reached a wider audience when they appeared on the PBS music television program Austin City Limits , taped in December 1978 .   In 1979 the brothers released their fourth and final album of the period , Fire on the Tracks , which reached number 24 on the album rock charts on the success of `` Union Man '' . That single was one of the songs they had performed during the Austin City Limits television show , leading up to the album 's release .   During the 1980s they issued no recordings , though they remained a popular touring act around the southern country rock and blues circuit of the Tennessee and Arkansas region .   In the early 1980s , the brothers joined Levon Helm , Rick Danko , Richard Manuel , and Garth Hudson in a revival of the Band ( without guitarist Robbie Robertson ) and also worked with singer Maria Muldaur .   The Cate brothers resumed recording in the mid-1990s , releasing five albums on independent labels from 1995 to 2009 .   Their 1995 release , Radioland , featured blues guitarist Coco Montoya , formerly with the 1980s reformed version of John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers .   Porky Hill , the drummer for the Cate Brothers Band for 12 years , died in September 2000 . Ron Eoff 's brother Mickey then joined the band .

neg: Hearts & Flowers Hearts & Flowers was a Los Angeles folk rock club band , perhaps most significant as one of the groups that launched the career of Eagles ' founding member and guitarist-songwriter , Bernie Leadon . The lineup included Larry Murray ( vocals , guitar ) , Dave Dawson ( vocals , guitar , autoharp ) , and Rick Cunha ( vocals , guitar ) .   The individual members met at the ongoing Monday night jam sessions being held at The Troubador over which Murray presided . Cunha and Dawson , who played in a duo , were newcomers as recent transplants to the area from Hawaii . After a few informal picking sessions , the trio gelled and started performing .   `` We had a unique sound , a very strange sound , particularly because we found what we did best was old , traditional , country hillbilly music , Murray told John Einarson . `` That became the core of what we did , the three of us , and we took it from there . ''   The group 's sound was described as `` Merle Haggard-meets-Sgt . Pepper '' as a result of the wide-ranging influences each member brought to Hearts & Flowers . This included the aforementioned Haggard , plus Buck Owens , The Louvin and Everly brothers , The Country Gentlemen , The Beatles , and Bob Dylan . With such unorthodox influences -- plus the fact that the band featured autoharp -- , the group was torn about the direction it wanted to take . `` Had it been up to us , we would have gone way country , '' said Cunha . `` We wanted it to be commercial and fit into the pop market , but left to our own devices it would have been even more country . Production changed what we would have done . ''   Meanwhile , Hearts & Flowers was influencing local musicians who heard them in various folk clubs around the Los Angeles area . This included several people who would later be credited with developing the then-germinating Southern California country-rock sound . Jim Messina ( Buffalo Springfield , Poco , Loggins and Messina ) says , `` Those three guys were probably the closest thing to what we were all flowing into . They were the cutting edge of where the rest of us were going . They were the black that did n't quite have the edge sharped on it yet . I got my first Telecaster from Rick Cunha . ''   The group signed a deal with Capitol Records ' Folk World label in December 1966 . Once in the studio , the trio was filled out with studio musicians and steered into a more folk direction . On the road , the group would be augmented with an ever-changing series of musicians including Terry Paul ( Kris Kristofferson ) , Pete Carr ( The Hour Glass ) , and Karen Carpenter ( The Carpenters ) .   Tensions over the direction of the group eventually came to a head . Cunha left the group in Fall 1967 to write country music and produce .   Leadon replaced Cunha for the second album in 1968 . Leadon was well known to Murray as they had played in the Scottsville Squirrel Barkers , a San Diego bluegrass group responsible for launching both those members ' careers as well as those of Chris Hillman ( The Byrds , The Flying Burrito Brothers , Manassas ) and Kenny Wertz ( The Flying Burrito Brothers , Country Gazette ) .   Among venues they played during the mid-1960s , were Los Angeles clubs Ledbetter 's , Doug Weston 's Troubadour , The Whisky-a-Go-Go , and the Ash Grove , primarily as an opening act . Some of the groups with whom they shared a bill included The Doors , Bill Monroe , The Buffalo Springfield , and Blue Cheer . After recording two albums without major success , the group disbanded in 1968 .   Murray claims the group was `` in a rut '' and each member was working with other , different musicians . `` But for a simple twist of fate , we could have been huge . We had what it took , we had a lot of charisma , the personality of the group was amazing . But I do n't think we were focused business-wise . We tended to go with losers , because they were less high-pressure , and we dodged the real pressure people whose asses we should have been kissing . But you do what you do . Everything we did seemed like a good idea at the time . ''   The timing of the break-up could n't have been worse . It was just prior to the release of the seminal country-rock album by The Byrds , Sweetheart of the Rodeo , and the subsequent formation of The Flying Burrito Brothers , both of which are credited with popularizing the genre .

neg: Nighthawk Records Nighthawk Records was an American independent record label , founded by Robert Schoenfeld who began operations in 1976 with the release of four vintage post-war blues reissue albums . This series consists of nine volumes of post-war blues recordings from Chicago , Detroit , Memphis and the Delta , New Orleans and the Southwest .   In 1979 , Nighthawk expanded by launching the 200 series of blues productions with Mule , an album by Henry Townsend . Townsend made his first recordings for Columbia Records in 1929 . Since then he recorded and performed on a variety of labels including RCA/Bluebird , as well as Paramount , Bullet and Prestige/Bluesville .   The 300 series began in 1980 with Wiser Dread , an anthology of Rastafarian roots-music recorded between 1972 and 1978 . Steven Davis , author of Reggae Bloodlines , has called `` Wiser Dread '' the '' ... best reggae anthology since The Harder They Come ten years ago . '' Since then Nighthawk have released a self-produced album by The Morwells of some of their singles and three volumes of Nighthawk 's own Jamaican productions : `` Brutal Out Deh '' by the Itals , `` Symbol of Reality '' by the Gladiators and `` Calling Rastafari '' featuring Culture , the Itals , the Gladiators , Wailing Souls and Mighty Diamonds .

neg: 1968 Philadelphia Eagles season The 1968 Philadelphia Eagles season was their 36th in the league . They failed to improve on their previous output of 6 -- 7 -- 1 , winning only two games . The fans expected to get O.J. Simpson if they went winless . They went 2-12 , but the Buffalo Bills went 1-12-1 and got Simpson with the 1st Pick . The Eagles were on target for a winless season at 0 -- 11 until they won their twelfth game . They were the first team in the NFL proper to lose eleven consecutive games in one season since their own 1936 season , though in the AFL the 1962 Oakland Raiders lost their first thirteen games .   Philadelphia sports fans are noted for their fervent devotion to their teams , leading to perennially high expectations . When Philadelphia teams fall short of expectations , their fans are not shy about voicing their displeasure . One of the most infamous incidents in Philadelphia sports history came at halftime of the final game of the 1968 season . After a dismal season , which had only been exacerbated further by the two unnecessary wins near the end of the season which would prevent the team from drafting O.J. Simpson , the Eagles were on their way to losing to the Minnesota Vikings . The Eagles had planned a Christmas pageant for halftime of the December 15 game , but the condition of the field was too poor . Instead , the team asked a fan dressed as Santa Claus to run onto the field to celebrate with a group of cheerleaders . The fans , in no mood to celebrate , loudly booed and threw snowballs at `` Santa Claus . ''

neg: Circle of One Circle of One is the third album by the American vocalist , pianist and songwriter Oleta Adams and was released in 1990 . Circle of One was Adams ' first album to receive wide distribution ; her two earlier albums ( an untitled album in 1982 and Going on Record in 1983 ) were self-financed and only received local distribution .

neg: 2003 Philadelphia Eagles season The 2003 Philadelphia Eagles season was their 71st in the league . They matched their previous season 's record , going 12 -- 4 , however , they were again upset in the NFC Championship Game . The team made the playoffs for the fourth straight year , won its third straight NFC East division title , and had the NFC 's top record for the second straight season .   After losing their final game in Veterans Stadium to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 2002 NFC Championship Game , Philadelphia looked to turn the page with the opening of brand-new Lincoln Financial Field , but the stadium got an inaspicious start when the Eagles dropped their first two games there , including a season-opening loss to Tampa Bay . A crushing loss to the New England Patriots left the Eagles 0 -- 2 and expected to compete for the Super Bowl , at a precarious 2 -- 3 , and it looked to be 2 -- 4 before Brian Westbrook returned a punt for a touchdown to shock the New York Giants in the closing minutes of their Week 7 contest . The play turned the Eagles ' season around and they won their next nine games , finishing with a 12 -- 4 record . In the playoffs , the Eagles needed a miracle conversion on 4th and 26 to defeat the Green Bay Packers , but the magic had run out by the next week and the team dropped a 14 -- 3 decision to the Carolina Panthers at Lincoln Financial Field in the NFC Championship Game .   A preseason holdout by running back Duce Staley resulted in a running back by committee situation by Staley , Westbrook , and Correll Buckhalter . The trio rushed for a combined 1,613 yards and 20 touchdowns and became known as `` The Three-Headed Monster . '' The rushing attack , which also benefited from 355 rushing yard and three touchdowns by quarterback Donovan McNabb , carried the offense , which featured a weak receiving corps that did not record a touchdown until Week 9 . There were calls early in the season to replace McNabb with backup A. J. Feeley , but McNabb would find his rhythm and enjoy a great season . The defense weathered early injuries to defensive backs Bobby Taylor and Brian Dawkins to eventually surrender the seventh-fewest points in the league . Cornerback Troy Vincent , in his final season as an Eagle , was elected to the Pro Bowl . The weakness in the defense would be in stopping the run , something the team struggled with even at the height of their nine-game winning streak .

neg: Another Night (The Hollies album) Another Night is an album by English rock/pop band , The Hollies . It is the band 's second album with vocalist Allan Clarke since his departure in 1972 ( the first album with him since his departure was their 1974 album , Hollies ) .

neg: Grammy Award for Best New Artist The Grammy Award for Best New Artist has been awarded since 1959 . Years reflect the year in which the Grammy Awards were handed out , for records released in the previous year . The award was not presented in 1967 . The official guidelines are as follows : `` For a new artist who releases , during the Eligibility Year , the first recording which establishes the public identity of that artist . '' Note that this is not necessarily the first album released by an artist .   It is sometimes asserted , with varying degrees of sincerity , that winning the award is a curse , as several award winners ( particularly from the late 1970s and early 1980s ) were never able to duplicate the success they experienced in their debut year . This viewpoint was expressed by former Starland Vocal Band member Taffy Danoff in a 2002 interview for VH1 's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders : `` We got two of the five Grammys -- one was Best New Artist . So that was basically the kiss of death and I feel sorry for everyone who 's gotten it since . ''   The category is also notable for being the only one of its kind in which a Grammy Award was vacated . This occurred in 1990 after it was revealed winners Milli Vanilli did not contribute their own vocals on their debut album . The award was revoked , but was not handed out to another artist .   Of the 54 awards presented in the category since its inception , the honor has been presented to 25 solo female artists , 18 duos or groups , and 11 solo male artists . Between 1997 and 2003 , all the winners were solo female artists . Also , from 1993 to 2005 , no winner was a solo male artist . In 2006 , John Legend broke this trend , which started with Marc Cohn in 1992 . Only four artists have won both Best New Artist and Album of the Year in the same year : Bob Newhart in 1961 , Christopher Cross in 1981 , Lauryn Hill in 1999 and Norah Jones in 2003 .   Of all the winners , only three have been country artists . In 1997 , LeAnn Rimes became the first country artist to win the award . She was followed by Carrie Underwood in 2007 and Zac Brown Band in 2010 . Additionally , 2017 marked the first time that two country artists were nominated in this category in the same year .   1984 marked the first time that all of the nominees were from outside of the United States ( Winner Culture Club , Eurythmics , and Musical Youth were from England , Big Country was from Scotland , and Men Without Hats were from Canada ) .

On the U.K. original vinyl release `` Space Intro '' does not appear on track listing . A 40-second track called `` Space Odyssey '' segues into `` Wild Mountain Honey '' .   The album was a success , spawning three singles : the title track , `` Take the Money and Run '' and `` Rock 'n Me '' , and eventually receiving quadruple platinum certification from the RIAA .

Guest musicians include George Thorogood and Joe Satriani . The DVD also features a lengthy interview with Steve Miller , archive footage , never-before-seen photographs , and early demo recordings .

neg: Atlanta Nights Atlanta Nights is a collaborative novel created in 2004 by a group of science fiction and fantasy authors , with the express purpose of producing an unpublishably bad piece of work , so as to test whether publishing firm PublishAmerica would still accept it . It was accepted ; after the hoax was revealed , the publisher withdrew its offer .   The primary purpose of the exercise was to test PublishAmerica 's claims to be a `` traditional publisher '' that would only accept high-quality manuscripts . Critics have long claimed that PublishAmerica is actually a vanity press that pays no special attention to the sales potential of the books they publish since most of their revenue comes from the authors rather than book buyers . PublishAmerica had previously made some highly derogatory public remarks about science fiction and fantasy writers , because many of their critics came from those communities ; those derogatory remarks influenced the decision to make such a public test of PublishAmerica 's claims .
