The county is named after the county Hampshire, in England. - Joe Pernice is an American indie rock musician and writer, who has fronted several bands, including the Scud Mountain Boys, Chappaquiddick Skyline and the Pernice Brothers. - Scud Mountain Boys are an American alt - country band . Formed in 1991 in Northampton , Massachusetts , it comprised Joe Pernice , Stephen Desaulniers , Bruce Tull and Tom Shea . Stephen Desaulniers left the band and was replaced by Frank Padellaro in October 1996 . The band at first was known as the Scuds , and their early work was influenced by electric rock . However , they sat round Tull 's kitchen table every night and played acoustic country tunes , and soon decided that they enjoyed this style more . This culminated in the Scud Mountain Boys bringing the table to a concert and playing while sitting down , a move which was enthusiastically welcomed . The band released three albums before disbanding in 1997 : Dance the Night Away ( 1995 ) , Pine Box ( 1995 ) and Massachusetts ( 1996 ) . Pernice , Shea and Desaulniers reunited for an impromptu performance in Cambridge in August 2011 . The band announced plans for a full reunion of the original lineup in January 2012 and social networking sites confirmed involvement of Pernice , Desaulniers , Tull and Shea for the shows . The band 's fourth album , Do You Love the Sun was released in 2013 . The Early Year , a compilation of their first two albums Dance the Night Away and Pine Box , was also released that year . Pernice , the group 's main songwriter , later went on to form the more pop / rock - influenced band Pernice Brothers . - Indie rock is a genre of alternative rock that originated in the United States and the United Kingdom in the 1980s. Indie rock encapsulates indie pop and lo-fi, among others. Originally used to describe record labels, the term became associated with the music they produced and was initially used interchangeably with alternative rock. As grunge and punk revival bands in the US, and then Britpop bands in the UK, broke into the mainstream in the 1990s, it came to be used to identify those acts that retained an outsider and underground perspective. In the 2000s, as a result of changes in the music industry and the growing importance of the Internet, some indie rock acts began to enjoy commercial success, leading to questions about its meaningfulness as a term. - A writer is a person who uses written words in various styles and techniques to communicate their ideas. Writers produce various forms of literary art and creative writing such as novels, short stories, poetry, plays, screenplays, and essays as well as various reports and news articles that may be of interest to the public. Writers' texts are published across a range of media. Skilled writers who are able to use language to express ideas well often contribute significantly to the cultural content of a society. The word is also used elsewhere in the arts such as songwriter but as a standalone term, "writer" normally refers to the creation of written language. Some writers work from an oral tradition. - A county seat is an administrative center, seat of government, or capital city of a county or civil parish. The term is used in the United States, Canada, Romania, China and Taiwan. In the United Kingdom and Ireland, county towns have a similar function.

Information: - Media Vision was an American electronics manufacturer of primarily computer sound cards and CD-ROM kits, operating from 1990 to approximately 1995 in Fremont, California. Media Vision was widely known for its Pro AudioSpectrum PC sound cardswhich it often bundled with CD-ROM drivesand its spectacular growth and demise. - Fremont is a city in Alameda County, California, United States. It was incorporated on January 23, 1956, from the merger of five smaller communities: Centerville, Niles, Irvington, Mission San Jose, and Warm Springs. The city is named after American explorer John Charles Fremont. - In electronics, a vacuum tube, an electron tube, or just a tube (North America), or valve (Britain and some other regions), is a device that controls electric current between electrodes in an evacuated container. Vacuum tubes mostly rely on thermionic emission of electrons from a hot filament or a cathode heated by the filament. This type is called a thermionic tube or thermionic valve. A phototube, however, achieves electron emission through the photoelectric effect. Not all electronic circuit valves/electron tubes are vacuum tubes (evacuated); gas-filled tubes are similar devices containing a gas, typically at low pressure, which exploit phenomena related to electric discharge in gases, usually without a heater. - Electronics is the science of controlling electrical energy electrically, in which the electrons have a fundamental role. Electronics deals with electrical circuits that involve active electrical components such as vacuum tubes, transistors, diodes, integrated circuits, associated passive electrical components, and interconnection technologies. Commonly, electronic devices contain circuitry consisting primarily or exclusively of active semiconductors supplemented with passive elements; such a circuit is described as an electronic circuit. - Aureal Semiconductor Inc. was an American electronics manufacturer , best known throughout the mid-late 1990s for their PC sound card technologies including A3D and the Vortex ( a line of audio ASICs . ) The company was the reincarnation of the , at the time , bankrupt Media Vision Technology . Media Vision was a developer and manufacturer of multimedia peripherals such as the Pro Audio Spectrum 16 . - Science is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe. - An integrated circuit or monolithic integrated circuit (also referred to as an IC, a chip, or a microchip) is a set of electronic circuits on one small flat piece (or "chip") of semiconductor material, normally silicon. The integration of large numbers of tiny transistors into a small chip resulted in circuits that are orders of magnitude smaller, cheaper, and faster than those constructed of discrete electronic components. The IC's mass production capability, reliability and building-block approach to circuit design ensured the rapid adoption of standardized ICs in place of designs using discrete transistors. ICs are now used in virtually all electronic equipment and have revolutionized the world of electronics. Computers, mobile phones, and other digital home appliances are now inextricable parts of the structure of modern societies, made possible by the small size and low cost of ICs.
