Henryk Górecki
Henryk Mikołaj Górecki () (born December 6, 1933 in Czernica, Silesia, Poland) is a composer of contemporary classical music. Górecki studied at the State Higher School of Music in Katowice between 1955 and 1960. In 1968, he joined the faculty and rose to provost before resigning in 1979. Górecki became a leading figure of the Polish avant-garde during the post-Stalin cultural thaw. His Webernian-influenced serialist works of the 1950s and 1960s were characterized by an adherence to dissonant modernism, and drew influence from Luigi Nono, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Krzysztof Penderecki and Kazimierz Serocki. He continued in this direction throughout the 1960s, but by the mid 1970s had changed to a less complex sacred minimalist sound, exemplified by the transitional Symphony No. 2 and the hugely popular Symphony No. 3 (Symphony of Sorrowful Songs). This later style has since developed during several other distinct phases; from such works his 1979 Beatus Vir, to the choral 1981 hymn Miserere, the 1993 Kleines Requiem für eine Polka and his recent requiem Good Night.

The nation was prosperous and optimistic at the time, leading to a landslide victory for Hoover over Democrat Al Smith.

Nina Simone
Eunice Kathleen Waymon (February 21, 1933 – April 21, 2003), better known by her stage name Nina Simone (), was an American singer, songwriter, pianist, arranger, and civil rights activist. Although she disliked being categorized, Simone is most associated with jazz music. Simone originally aspired to become a classical pianist, but her work covers an eclectic variety of musical styles that include classical, jazz, blues, soul, folk, R&B;, gospel, and pop. Her vocal style is characterized by intense passion, a loose vibrato, and a slightly androgynous timbre, in part due to her unusually low vocal range which veered between the alto and tenor ranges (occasionally even reaching baritone lows). Also known as The High Priestess of Soul, she paid great attention to the musical expression of emotions. Within one album or concert she could fluctuate between exuberant happiness and tragic melancholy. These fluctuations also characterized her own personality and personal life, amplified by bipolar disorder with which she was diagnosed in the mid-1960s, something not widely known until after her death in 2003, though she wrote of it openly in her autobiography published in 1992. According to Nadine Cohodas, Simone's biographer, Ms. Simone was first diagnosed with multiple personality disorder and later with schizophrenia.

You don't see political speeches given with this type of emotion any more! The only reason I put this Video on YouTube in February 2007, was because it was the only one I had on my computer that I could load at the time. I thought others may find it historically interesting. My own personal political viewpoint is centralist, neither left not right.

'Deluge' is a now almost-forgotten early American disaster movie made in 1933. For decades, it was thought that all prints had been lost, but an export version, dubbed into Italian and shortened by ten minutes, was found in the 1980s, and is now available on NTSC VHS tape (there is no DVD release available, sadly). Unlike later disaster films, the catastrophe - in this case, the unexplained destruction of New York (and the rest of the world) by earthquake and flood - happens early on, the rest of the film dealing with a group of survivors and a (racy for the time) love triangle. This video shows only the disaster itself. While crude in places (the mattes and composites in general leave a bit to be desired, and are not that great even for 1933), the sheer scale, ambition and execution of the miniature effects is spectacular and can only be applauded. A gigantic model of lower Manhattan was built, with breakaway buildings shaken to pieces and then washed away by thousands of gallons of water from dumptanks. In charge of the effects was Ned Mann, who later went to England and oversaw the effects for the Korda/Wells classic 'Things To Come' (1936). Republic Pictures bought 'Deluge' in the 1940s and mercilessly plundered the disaster scenes to use in their serials, most famously in 'King of the Rocket Men' (1949).

The "Business Plot" (also the Plot Against FDR and the White House Putsch) was an alleged political conspiracy in 1933 wherein wealthy businessmen and corporations plotted a coup détat to overthrow United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt. In 1934, the Business Plot was publicly revealed by retired Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler testifying to the McCormack-Dickstein Congressional Committee. In his testimony, Butler claimed that a group of men had approached him as part of a plot to overthrow Roosevelt in a military coup. One of the alleged plotters, Gerald MacGuire, vehemently denied any such plot. In their final report, the Congressional committee supported Butler's allegations of the existence of the plot, but no prosecutions or further investigations followed, and the matter was mostly forgotten. On July 17, 1932, thousands of World War I veterans converged on Washington, DC, set up tent camps, and demanded immediate payment of bonuses due them according to the Adjusted Service Certificate Law of 1924. This "Bonus Army" was led by Walter W. Waters, a former Army sergeant. The Army was encouraged by an appearance from retired Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler, who had considerable influence over the veterans, being one of the most popular military figures of the time. A few days after Butler's arrival, President Herbert Hoover ordered the marchers removed, and their camps were destroyed by US Army cavalry troops under the command of General <b>...</b>
100 Jahre - Der Countdown 27 - 1933 - Hitlers Machterschleichung
Hitler an der Macht - 1933 - Hitlers Machterschleichung Berlin, 30. Januar 1933: Ein bitterkalter Wintermorgen, Menschen in Warteschlangen vor Wohlfahrtsküchen frieren bei minus 10 Grad. Plötzlich um halb elf: "Heil"-Rufe unter den Passanten - erst einzelne, dann immer mehr. In langen Mänteln fahren Hitler, Göring und Frick im offenen Mercedes zur Reichskanzlei. Kurz vor zwölf: Hitler schwört den Amtseid auf die Republik, Präsident von Hindenburg ernennt ihn zum Reichskanzler. "Die Masse ist wie ein Weib", sagt Hitler danach, "und als solche mache ich sie mir jetzt gefügig. Keine Macht der Welt wird mich hier jemals lebend wieder herausbringen." Den Verrückten durch Macht zu beschwichtigen, das war der vielleicht größte Irrtum der Weltgeschichte. In Hitlers "1000-jährigem Reich" erlebt Deutschland seine schwärzeste Phase - ein leichtfertig verschuldetes, bleibendes Trauma. (Quelle: www.phoenix.de)

Betty Boop 1933 Cab Calloway "Snow-White"
This 1933 cartoon featuring Cab Calloway is remarkable for having been animated by a single individual, Roland C. Crandall, and is considered one of the best cartoons ever made. Crandall received the opportunity to make Snow White on his own as a reward for his several years of devotion to the Fleischer studio, and the resulting film is considered both his masterwork and an important milestone of The Golden Age of American animation. (See The 50 Greatest Cartoons, as Selected by 1000 Animation Professionals, edited by Jerry Beck, Turner Publishing, Inc., 1994.) You don't get to see any live action of Cab in "Snow White," which is too bad, but the animation is incredible and, of course, the music is Cab and his Orchestra at their best. First Cab sings "St. James Infirmary" in the rotoscoped guise of Koko the Clown. "St. James Infirmary" was Cab's original signature tune, but he wanted something written specifically for himself, so he and Irving Mills wrote "Minnie the Moocher" to supplant "St. James Infirmary." The two melodies are extremely similar, and also bear a close resemblance to "Prohibition Blues." "Snow White" ends with the old Missourians instrumental, "Stopping the Traffic." This plot, such as it is, is really more a framework to display a series of gags, musical selections, and clever animation. Critics have cited the film as having some of the most imaginative animation and background drawings from the Fleischer Studios artists <b>...</b>

After other countries abandoned the gold standard in the early days of the Great Depression, the Hoover administration stayed on in, even though doing so may US goods less competitive. Franklin Roosevelt effectively abandoned the gold standard in 1933. He returned to a modified version of it the following year but with the price of gold raised to $35 per ounce. After WW2, the Roosevelt $35 price became enshrined in the Bretton Woods international monetary system until President Nixon ended that system in 1971.
