An historic era in Texas politics takes center
stage this week at Encyclopaedia Britannica, which marks Lyndon Johnson's
August 27 birthday by highlighting on its Web site the 36th president's
tribute to his mentor Sam Rayburn, written for the encyclopedia 43 years
ago.
Britannica's entry on Rayburn, who represented Texas in Congress for 48
years and was speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives for nearly 17,
was written by LBJ himself, one of Rayburn's friends and protégés.
"The entry is interesting on many levels," said Theodore Pappas, executive
editor of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, "not least because Johnson wrote it
only months before ascending to the presidency following the assassination
of John F. Kennedy in 1963." Rayburn had died two years earlier.
"Energetic, studious, ambitious, and affable, Rayburn quickly became
influential behind the scenes in government and in party politics," Johnson
wrote about his friend's early career. Johnson went on t...

20th on Reprise Records, debuted at Number 25 on the Billboard Top 200
Album Chart. The album scanned 30,377 units in its first week, making it

Entertainment Weekly describes the album as "both expansive and dreamy,"
while allmusic.com gushes, "'Ganging Up on the Sun' might just be their
best yet."

"Almost 15 years into its career, Guster has aged from a slightly quirky,

songwriters," notes Relix magazine, while the Associated Press says, "Lik...

75 summer associates in 21 offices. The week's events spotlight the ways
summer associates can use their leadership skills from day one of their
