TWA Hijacking, June 14, 1985: A Trans-World Airlines flight was hijacked en route to Rome from Athens by two Lebanese Hizballah terrorists and forced to fly to Beirut. The eight crew members and 145 passengers were held for seventeen days, during which one American hostage, a U.S. Navy sailor, was murdered. After being flown twice to Algiers, the aircraft was returned to Beirut after Israel released 435 Lebanese and Palestinian prisoners.
The great body of lawyers who had insisted that Curtis be reappointed soon became satisfied, and as time went on they began to realize that they were trying cases involving facts and law before a Chancellor who had every single quality that great office required. He was patient, tolerant, in hearings before him, but only so long as you undertook to develop facts and argument on the question he was called upon to decide. He made a record that probably has not been equaled in any Court anywhere. He served for seventeen and a half years as Chancellor, and many appeals from his decisions went to the Supreme Court, and he was reversed only once. (68)
Change, hardly recognizable at first, began in the year after Chancellor Wolcott's death. Tradition was honored by the December 7, 1938, appointment of William Watson Harrington, the distinguished resident law judge in Kent County, as Chancellor. Chancellor Harrington, sixty-four years old at the time of his appointment, having served over seventeen years as a law judge, fitted well the Killen mold of judicial promotion. But Chancellor W.W. Harrington knew it was "too big a job for one man," and people got into the act for immediate expansion through a route that did not require a constitutional amendment. (79) Shortly thereafter a modest change suggested the future would be different than heretofore.

49. 21 Del.Laws c. 274, §§ 1-139. See Arsht, A History of Delaware Corporation Law, 1 Del.J.Corp.L. 1 (1976), for an excellent and mercifully brief account. The authors are grateful to S. Samuel Arsht, Esquire (Mr. Arsht) and The Honorable G. Burton Pearson, Jr. (Judge Pearson), for sharing valuable thoughts about the Court of Chancery and its history in the twentieth century. In addition, Mr. Arsht was kind enough to read and make editorial comments on an early draft.
106. Baker v. Providence & Worcester Co., Del.Ch., 364 A.2d 838 (1976). The case is somewhat notable because the decision was reversed, Del.Supr., 378 A.2d 121 (1977), the Supreme Court approving "differing voting rights within the same class of stock depending on the number of shares owned by the stockholder." See I Folk, supra note 91, § 151.4. Chancellor Quillen later enjoyed noting that he did better in New Jersey. See Asarco Inc v. Court, 611 F.Supp. 468, 478 (D.N.J.1985).

He has appeared in six films that have been selected for the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically or aesthetically" significant: Mean Streets (1973), The Godfather Part II (1974), Taxi Driver (1976), The Deer Hunter (1978), Raging Bull (1980) and Goodfellas (1990).
At the 31st AFI Life Achievement Awards, Jodie Foster credited De Niro with introducing her to the true craft of acting. During production of Taxi Driver (1976), he would insist that they'd meet for coffee and rehearse their scenes from together at a local diner. After a while, Jodie became bored of the routine until De Niro began improvising lines during their rehearsals. Jodie soon learned to follow his improv as he weaved back and forth to the original script, in essence teaching her how to effectively build a character.
This marked the start of a decade of domestic and international glory. Between 1966 and 1976 seventeen consecutive Earring singles rocketed into the Dutch Top 10, while their international popularity increased, especially after their lengthy 1972 tour of Europe, supporting The Who. Buddy Joe (1972) achieved considerable chart success in the German-speaking countries of Europe, but 1973's Radar Love was their breakthrough smash hit worldwide: #13 in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #1 in the U.S. Cashbox chart, #5 in Britain, #8 in Australia, #10 in Canada, #5 in Germany, #6 in Belgium, #1 in Spain and also #1 in (last but not least) Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), to name but a few.
The band failed to achieve similar chart success in the years after Radar Love: the progressive Switch (1975) and To The Hilt (1976) charted in Billboard's album charts, but yielded no major U.S. hits. The singles were clearly not what North American audiences wanted from the 'Radar Love guys'. 781b155fdc
