	Washington Evening Star, April 19, 1913: Lafayette Square
		When President Adams and the government officials moved here in 1800, the surroundings of the President's house were in an unfinished, untidy condition, and, indeed, the interior of the house was in the same plight, the east room of which was used by the household as a washing room on wash days.
		This square, indeed, came near being a semi-circle for L'Enfant in his first plan of Washington, depicting the streets and squares in the neighborhood, included a semicircle which had its base ont he present Avenue, circling around to the south side of H street.
		The house next became the property of the old Washington Club, celebrated as being the rendezvous of the gay and rich young men of the Capital in former times.

	The Christchurch Star and the assassination of John F. Kennedy, 1963 - Christchurch City Libraries
		Preoccupation with the Christchurch Star connection intensified with the release in 1992 of Oliver Stone's movie JFK, which uses, as part of its evidence, the front page of the Star of 23 November 1963.
		There were claims that the Star coverage contained information which was pre-packaged by conspirators prior to the assassination taking place and distributed in the US and then sent out to New Zealand very soon after the event.
		He says that even in 1963 global communication was fast and effective everywhere and an assassination of a US President meant that everything and everyone on the Star worked doubly quick.

		The 1968 campaign, as well as the contests in 1972 and 1976 and even, to an extent, in 1980, were still examples of the old style of Washington journalism pioneered and perfected by Scotty Reston.
		This was more true among Democratic candidates than Republican, but it was still possible for print journalists to get to know the candidates reasonably well and to have background discussions of some length and sophistication with the candidates and with their senior advisors.
		Even then, the senior staff regarded it as in their interest and in the nation's interest to meet regularly with the writing press.

		"Evening Star", the second collaboration between Robert Fripp and Brian Eno, finds the pair operating in much the same environment as their first collaboration-- Fripp performs as a guitarist, soloing over loops developed via a system of tape looping invented by Eno termed "Frippertronics".
		Of particular note is the title track, "Evening Star", built around a simple clean-tone guitar riff and harmonics, Fripp solos in fuzz tone in an overwhelmingly delicate and powerful mode.
		I suggest listening to the samples as this may not be to everyone's tastes, even some fans of the collaborators.
