	VH1.com : Herbie Hancock : Biography - Urge Music Downloads

	Antiquity of Man Graham Hancock's "science"
		I propose a shift in attention away from Hancock's own ideas to his backing of other alternative authors, and how this reflects both on his understandings of the archaeological discipline as well as on the validity of his scientific judgements.
		Graham Hancock wrote the Forward to "The Hidden History of Mankind" and his words are revealing: "Let me say at the outset that I believe this book to be one of the landmark intellectual achievements of the late twentieth century.
		Hancock also portrays a misunderstanding of scientific terminology when he uses the phrase "academic opinion"; he thus gives the distinct impression that a theory is simply nothing more than an opinion.

	Urban Legends Reference Pages: History (John Hancock and Bull Story)
		Perhaps because we know so little about Hancock the man, we've invented legends about him to explain how his name came to be front and center on the Declaration of Independence, the largest and clearest signature on the document, smack in the middle of the top row.
		John Hancock was an extremely rich man who risked much of his fortune on the success of the revolution, who had a price on his head, and who practically guaranteed by signing the Declaration that he would be hanged by the British if caught.
		Hancock typically signed his name in the fancy, large script so familiar to us, and the reason his name appears in the middle of the top row of the Declaration is because, as president of the Continental Congress, he was the only delegate to affix his signature to it on

	UT Feature Story -- What's in a Name?: Professor takes on roles of Romani activist and spokesperson to improve plight ...
		Although Hancock has been a teacher and had an intellectual interest in the language and history of the Romanies for decades, perhaps his greater contribution to education has been outside the classroom and more due to intensely personal experiences than to a dispassionately curious and active mind.
		Hancock is responsible for the first Romani program of university studies, which he initiated at The University of Texas at Austin, and is to be credited with the university’s distinction as the leading U.S. center for studies of Romani history, language and culture.
		The Dalai Lama informed Hancock that it was crucial for the Romanies to sustain the strength of the family unit within their culture and to keep their language alive but to lose those customs that are holding them back and keeping them from integrating into the larger society.

	Herbie Hancock
		Hancock's tune has a couple of swinging, funky sections, and the very end is unsettling and chilling, but by then you've sat through a lot of mind-numbing mood music.
		Hancock does switch to piano long enough to deliver a brilliant solo on Bennie Maupin's otherwise lackluster "Sansho Shima." The band is largely unchanged, but Ray Parker Jr.
		Hancock mostly confines himself to atmospheric synth washes and occasional noodling, leaving so much open space the disc often has a New Age feel, though a couple of tunes are so singleminded and simpleminded they manage to be actively annoying ("Alphabeta").

	Fingerprints of the Gods by Graham Hancock (Skeptical Inquirer July 2002)
		Hancock (1995, 11) went so far as to claim no geologist "has succeeded in proving it incorrect." Results from pollen analyses have revealed patterns of climate change that are at odds with the inherent predictions of the Earth Crustal Displacement model.
		Hancock makes a case for Siberia having experienced a warm climate before 11,000 B.P. and contrasts it with the conditions seen there today.
		The problem is that the winters had to have been cold enough to freeze and mummify the remains, and the summers warm enough to melt the permafrost and produce mudflows to bury the carcasses.

		Update 2003 May 24: On 2003 May 19, in a post on Hancock's message board, one of Hancock's sycophants claimed that my statements above are false, and proceeded to cut-and-paste some entirely irrelevant material from an excellent web site on vulcanism.
		Despite having been informed that vulcanism and earthquakes are different things (and despite the intervening tragedy of the Algerian earthquake being nearer to quadrature than to syzygy), the said sycophant has declined to correct the misleading post.

	BBC - Comedy Guide - Hancock
		It is well publicised that Tony Hancock, wishing to stretch his television character, decided to work without his sidekick Sid James and continue the show as solo lead.
		The producer, Duncan Wood, was keen to cancel the taping but Hancock was insistent that it should go ahead; Wood duly employed 'teleprompters' (modern versions of cue-cards or 'idiot boards' as they were unkindly called) from which Hancock could read his part during the taping.
		The result could have been disastrous - in fact, it was a triumph, but Hancock was so enamoured of this labour-saving device that he scarcely bothered to learn his lines again throughout the remainder of his TV career.

	BBC 7 - Comedy - Tony Hancock
		Hancock's Half Hour kicked off in November 1954 becoming a very British, comic-institution for almost two decades.
		Starring Tony Hancock, the show's writers Ray Galton and Alan Simpson, created the winning and loveably snobbish, very British gent with social aspirations and delusions of grandeur - Tony's thespian, gangster alter ego - aka Tony Hancock.
		Whereas in the radio version, wacky, camp, 'comedy' voices led the show, the TV version evolved into more of a reality-based drama, emerging as a situation comedy that the writers and Hancock himself felt should be as true to life as possible.
