...seats. That would give the 91st Congress a Democratic edge of 226 Democrats to 209 Republicans. It would also give the House a more conservative tilt, making it more hostile to foreign aid than even the pinch-penny 90th, more sympathetic to defense appropriations, less anxious to enact fresh domestic programs, more eager to transfer federal projects to state and local control...
Anti-Dubcek Factions. Once again, the Czechoslovak leaders returned from Moscow beaten men, committed to imposing a fresh series of repressive measures on their people.

...powers by writing inventions in the style of Bach. "Two part inventions are hard, but it's the three-part ones that are a real gas." He does all this without the help of a piano. His songs are always conceived as total entities. Most of the cuts on "Fresh Cream" were written out in full score, again without the aid of a piano. I asked him the meaning of the title to one of these songs, "N.S.U." "That stands for nonspecific urethritis which is a disease of the urethra you catch from women ...from fucking. We dedicated...
